    In the enchanting kingdom of Doria, the Great Golden Bird has been a guardian and a mystery for over a millennium. Her origins and age remain unknown, but her presence is a constant source of comfort and wonder for the people. Perched atop the tallest tree in the Great Meadow, she watches over the land, ensuring that the weather is always agreeable. The rains come twice a week, nourishing the crops, rivers, and lakes, while the weekends remain dry. In the winter, snow falls just enough for the joy of sledding and skiing. The Dorians believe that the Golden Bird is the force behind this perfect balance. Only the Royal twins of Doria, Gem and Jewel, have ever been close to the enigmatic creature. However, when they wake up one Sunday morning to a dreadful rainstorm, they realize that the Golden Bird is in grave danger, and it falls upon them to save her and protect the kingdom from an uncertain fate.

    Charlie's Ark is a collection of stories about a five-year-old boy and his toy box ark which contain many animals which magically come to life when he whispers a 'Wordspell'. Engaging, charming and a moral within every story together with beautiful illustrations, this book is a delight. Created and written by award-winning artist Mike Payne who is also the creator and original artist of the grey, blue-nosed bear "Tatty Teddy". "Classics, children's classics in particular, endure because a child's soul inherently recognises a communion we adults only faintly remember. Storytelling is an art. Story writing is a craft. What has been collectively accomplished here is the gem at the pinnacle of the creative crown – inspiration. May Charlie's Ark join the classics of yore to be loved by legions of children as yet unborn and generations beyond that. Magic has been created here." MARY JANE, NEW ORLEANS USA
